i lie here awake yet again
I lie here awake yet again
Of course I would end up with a pen in my hand.
I told you I would soon be back writing
This time it is because my mind won’t stop fighting
The fight has been going on for hours
The thought of you is what it devours
Maybe your memory is a blessing, no it’s a curse
I wonder if it could be any worse.
These things that trouble me are they real
I would say so due to the fact that I feel.
Well I have said it once before
Now I guess I’ll say it once more
When I can’t sleep I first pray to God
That this frozen memory of you would be thawed.
I try to think of anything except you that I can
In hopes that I will soon see the sandman
When I’m still awake and my prayers aren’t answered
It makes me think that maybe by you I am conquered
It’s not something easy for me to admit
Especially when you aren’t willing to commit
Ohh this crazy game of love
It’s hard to believe it came from our Lord above.
Damn this wicked game of hearts
Why did we ever choose to start?
You can lie about your feelings for me all you want
But it never stops those memories that forever haunt
If you can live with that kind of torture
You must be some different kind of creature
I know that if it gets to me it must get to you
If you say it doesn’t you’re speaking against all your virtue
I don’t know how to make my argument any stronger
So I guess I won’t keep you any longer
